Maybe just a general "Online Porn Hall Of Fame" award would be something they could use for a lot of guys who had tons of success but weren't necessarily "internet founders"?
Heck, I was just looking at the nominees for all the awards and I swear to God that a lot of those movies and "stars" wouldn't be seen by more than a thousand people if the DVD's weren't being ripped and pirated on Pornhub. lol
I've felt that the Awards shows are living in the past in that Porn Valley bubble of old video studios. More people see porn online in a day than watch all the porn DVD's put together in a year.
The fan base has definitely moved away from that.
It is good to see Kelly Madison getting some recognition. She and Ryan have really worked hard and built a big brand.
I'd bet that a girl like her could walk into a casino here in Vegas along with EVERY girl in the "Best Actress" category and nobody would recognize any of the girls EXCEPT Kelly Madison.
I just can't figure out the mindset behind the awards...well, of course I can. It's a bit of a reward to faithful advertisers of course. And those companies in porn valley are the ones that butter the bread for AVN. So I don't blame them.
I just think that unless the awards shows want to become totally irrelevant, they need to realize that millions of people are watching porn online and the internet girls are some of the biggest adult stars in the world in 2011 and add some categories to bring them up to speed.
